Every planet has its own weird customs. About a year before we met, I spent six weeks on a moon where the principal form of recreation was juggling geese. My hand to God. Baby geese. Goslings. They were juggled.

Boxed Set, Vol. IV: It's always suicide-mission this, save-the-planet that.  

A topic for the discussion of Farscape, Smallville, and Due South. Beware possible invasions of Stargate, Highlander, or pretty much any other "genre" (read: sci fi or fantasy) show that captures our fancy. Expect Adult Content and discussion of the Big Gay Sex.

Blackfont is allowed after the show has aired on the east coast.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Wasn't it the word carved into a tree or something when Jamestown disappeared?

Yep, but it was the Roanoke colony (often just known as the Lost Colony) on the NC coast that disappeared 20 years before Jamestown was founded.

The one I'm really looking forward to seeing again is "Hunted." It'll be interesting to see how the episode feels now that I know what happens with Ava.

Here you go, Zen [link]

(Weirdly, I was going to say Jamestown, too. I wonder why.)

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Thank you! I knew I had heard it before, and couldn't think where. Of course, using wikipedia didn't occur to me.

vanguard of the socialist Hollywood liberal homosexualist agenda

Wikipedia entry on Roanoke Colony

I think it's a subtle misdirect from the post-apocalyptic zombie vibe.

eta: haha, Wiki x-post!

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Wasn't it the word carved into a tree or something when Jamestown disappeared? Edit: Or not Jamestown. Whatever that place was called. I'm going to wikipedia.

I love the hivemind that this exchange is not the first of its kind.

Really, none of us do. Shut up, I mean. Once we grok, we get talky meat.

(Give us our preciousssss thread and ... well, you're still stuck with the NCistas and we'll be over there being jealous of you for it.)
